I think Yuki is missing her old home. She looks really sad  She hasn't played at all yet, just mooches around and shies away when approached. She bit me today, it didn't seem aggressive, but was hard enough to make me bleed and leave a bruise. Seems like she's telling me she's unhappy, and didn't want to be held. Any suggestions how I can help put her more at ease? |

Give her time. It's not easy for a ferret to be rehomed. It takes time. As she becomes more comfortable with her space, the noise, the smells of her new home she will start reaching out to you. She's adorable. I have a very soft spot for wee 'binos  ciao |

I know with Herman for some reason he didnt come near me for a while and I was nervous to hold him. So I just sat in the room and had food on my lap and he would come take some then eat it and now he follows me around the room trying to climb in my pant legs haha.
I agree that i think it will take time, but maybe try like a cat teaser toy? ( something to play but gives you a little distance too so they dont feel to like overwhelmed?)

She came out of her shell a little today had a couple of towel rides, chased a feather cat toy for a while too. I even saw a little dooks 'n' dance She's still nervous though. She really brings the jealous side out in Pinky, not sure they'll hit it off :/ |

Haha they make me laugh all the time, its great. Ah haha that wouldnt be very good! I know Lafie is a major rough house playing kinda guy and when him an herman did play herman just let lafie do what ever and try to run away x-x hopefully he will be able to show lafie when hes all healed up! haha ( he got growths removed that were all cut open and not good. But he is already walking and seems to feel better ^-^ very much worth the worry of him being in surgery haha)

Aww I hope he heals up well I'm nervous about these two meeting, I have this feeling it won't be an easy time :/ im super nervous with mine too, i think you have more to worry about but i hope things work out, maybe use treats like while they are still separated by a cage wall and show them that when they are near each other they get goodies? |

We let them meet yesterday for the first time.
They fought and squealed, we left them to it for a little until Yuki pooped a little and started backing into the corner, then we separated them.
Hopefully better luck next time.
Any advice on how often to let them meet?

I would think it would be good to let be together as much as possible and if poop happens (excuse the pun!) separating them for an hour to a couple of hours is good. The more time they spend together the quicker they will adjust but of course you want it to be a safe adjustment also. Are they eating together? I'm sure someone more experienced with introducing a new baby will chime in soon, I have only done it once and it went amazingly well.
